A hamlet of mixed ages

One hamlet, several generations of fuse box

Homes in and around Abingworth are a mixture rather than a single style, and the boards inside them follow suit. We expect to find a few original fuse boxes still running on rewireable fuses, more units from the 1980s and 1990s with one RCD covering only half the circuits, and some that have been extended piece by piece as rooms and appliances were added.

Our quote starts with two pictures, one of the board and one of the meter. Those usually show whether £425 for a dual RCD board will cover it or whether full RCBO protection, starting at £625, is the better choice, for example where one tripping circuit currently plunges half the house into darkness.

  • Rewireable fuses taken out
  • Split load boards upgraded
  • Every circuit labelled clearly
  • Earthing and bonding checked

Powering a garden room or workshop properly

Living outside a town often means working from home, and in a hamlet like Abingworth that can mean a garden office, studio or workshop at the end of the lawn. Those buildings are usually fed by a buried cable from the house board, and on older installations that cable may be protected by nothing more than a fuse.

When we change your board we give that supply its own protected way, check the cable size against the load you plan to run, and test at the far end. If the outbuilding needs a small board of its own, we say so in the quote rather than on the day.

  • Outbuilding supply on its own way
  • Cable size checked against the load
  • Remote end tested and recorded
  • Sub-board priced in advance if needed
Getting to you

Reaching Abingworth from the coast

We normally take the A27 to Shoreham and the A283 up the Adur valley, then west through Washington to Storrington and north towards Thakeham. Nothing is added for travel. Only a few photos by text are needed to fix the quote, and if the power has gone completely, ring and we will come that day wherever we can.

Not necessarily. We test the existing cable for insulation resistance and check its size and route against what you run out there. If it passes, it is reconnected to its own protected way on the new board. If it is undersized or damaged, we explain why and give you a separate price before doing anything.

Allow four to six hours for most board changes, with the supply off for much of that time while we disconnect, fit and test. We tell you in advance roughly when it will go off, so you can charge laptops and phones and plan your working day. A freezer will hold its temperature if the door stays shut.

Yes. The figure we send after seeing your photos is fixed, and Abingworth costs no more than anywhere else in Sussex because we do not charge for travel. The only time it changes is if testing uncovers a hidden fault, and even then nothing extra is done unless you agree to it first.
